Researchers at the University of Tsukuba in Japan have invented a method to manipulate the musical scales of cicadas' chirps by using electrical muscle stimulation (EMS). A hybrid biological-electronic speaker was produced ...
University of Pennsylvania researchers have developed a powerful new investigative tool to reveal how proteins work inside living cells. A technique that enables quick, precise and minimally disruptive incorporation of amino ...
Researchers at the University of California, Irvine have developed a live-imaging system, Phollow, that tracks individual bacteriophages as they spread through the gut of zebrafish, showing that phages from different bacterial ...
Engineers and biologists at Dartmouth College have found that, just like word order affects meaning in a sentence, the placement of genes within a plasmid—known as gene syntax—can influence how strongly each gene is expressed, ...
The industrially ravaged Gowanus Canal, long regarded as a symbol of urban environmental neglect, is being reimagined through the lens of scientific inquiry as a complex reservoir of microbial life shaped by intense selective ...
Syngenta Biotechnology China-led research, with partners in the U.S., France, the UK, Chile, the Netherlands, Argentina, and across China, has discovered that sunflowers can form viable haploid seeds through parthenogenesis ...
The Field Museum in Chicago and the Foundation for Scientific Advancement reported that sediment-encased maturation of pine resin produces a hardened, translucent substance that closely mimics natural copal and amber in appearance, ...
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign researchers have developed a CRISPR-based diagnostic tool capable of detecting bloodstream infections in minutes without the need for nucleic acid amplification. The CRISPR-Cascade ...
A team of microbiologists, chemists and pharmaceutical specialists at Shandong University, Guangzhou Medical University, Second Military Medical University and Qingdao University, all in China, has developed an AI model that ...
Researchers at the National University of Singapore have reported crossing the blood–brain barrier with help from a modified Lactobacillus plantarum. By delivering an appetite-regulating hormone directly to the olfactory ...
